Personally I am a passionate about software development for the web space with a love for anything web 2.0. An area I’m always reading and trying to learn more about as you can see from my reading list.

The main purpose for this blog is to provide me with a journal where I can store anything I find interesting on the web and want to be able to share it with my friends and also come back to it if I need to at some later time.
